With a four prong style jack,
use a plug-in modular adapter

For Wall Mounting
Your CONAIRPHONE
TM
is
designed to mount over a
modular wall jack. Connect the
short telephone line cord to the
modular jack at the bottom of
the base and insert the other
end of the cord into the
modular wall jack. Position the
wall mount slots located on the
back of your telephone over
the two studs on wall plate and
pull down to lock in place (see
Figure 5).
OPERATION
Important Notice
Your CONAIRPHONE
TM
will operate on all systems, true
tone or rotary.
1. If your home is wired for rotary service, move the Tone/
Pulse switch to Pulse position (P).
2. If your home is wired for Tone service, move the switch
to the Tone position (T).
3. If you are unsure of the type of service you have, position
Tone/Pulse switch to Tone (T). If dialing cannot be done,
set to Pulse (P).
Dialing a Call
Pick up phone, wait for a dial tone, then press the keys for
the number you want to dial. Your CONAIRPHONE
TM
will
generate true tone sounds only on tone setting. On pulse
setting, electronic pulses are used to simulate rotary dialing.
Because of this, you may hear pulsing for a second or two
after the last key has been pressed.
Note: Your CONAIRPHONE
TM
features a lighted dial for
dialing in a darkened room.
Last Number Redial
Your CONAIRPHONE
TM
remembers the last number dialed.
This is a convenient feature when trying to place a call to a
number that is continuously busy. Press the hook switch to
get a dial tone followed by pressing the REDIAL key. Your
call will be automatically dialed.
Ringer High/Off/Low
Your CONAIRPHONE
TM
features a harmonic dual tone
ringer which can be adjusted to a loud (High) or soft (Low)
sound level. When you don’t want to be disturbed, slide
switch to the “Off” position. Now you can still make outgoing
calls without being disturbed by incoming calls.
Receiver Volume Control
The receiver volume control is located on the side of your
handset. This enables you to adjust the receiver volume on
your telephone handset from normal to high for a more
comfortable listening level.
Ending a Call
After you finish a conversation, just hang up the handset.
To make another call, depress the hook switch briefly,
release, and dial.
Hearing Aid Compatibility
Your CONAIRPHONE
TM
is compatible with inductively
coupled hearing aids.
FCC and Telephone Company Requirements
Your telephone company is required by the Federal
Communications Commission to allow you to connect FCC
registered telephones to their lines. The FCC requires you
to provide information, if requested by the local telephone
company, about the connection of an FCC registered
telephone to their lines. They may ask you for the FCC
registration number and the ringer equivalence number
(REN); both are on the bottom of the base. They may also
ask for the Universal Service Order Code (USOC), which is
RJ-11C.
The REN is used to determine the quantity of devices which
may be connected to the telephone line. Excessive REN’s
on the telephone line may result in the devices not ringing
in response to an incoming call, in most, but not all areas,
the sum of the REN’s should not exceed five (5.0). To be
certain of the number of devices that may be connected to
the line, as determined by the total REN’s, contact the
Figure 4
telephone company to determine the maximum REN for
the calling area.
Should your equipment cause trouble on your line, which
may harm the telephone network, the telephone company
shall, where practicable, notify you that temporary
discontinuance of service may be required.
Where prior notice is not practicable and the circumstances
warrant such action, the telephone company may
temporarily discontinue service immediately. In case of such
temporary discontinuance, the telephone company must:
(1) promptly notify you of such temporary discontinuance;
(2) afford you the opportunity to correct the situation; (3)
inform you of your right to bring a complaint to the
Commission pursuant to procedures set forth in Subpart E
of Part 68, FCC Rules and Regulations.
The telephone company may make changes in its
communications facilities, equipment, operations or
procedures where such action is required in the operation
of its businesses and not in consistent with FCC Rules and
Regulations. If these changes are expected to affect the
use or performance of your telephone equipment, the
telephone company must give you adequate notice, in
writing, to allow you to maintain uninterrupted service.
